Do the 7-spoke and 6-spoke wheels reveal what package came with the car?
There are three different OEM wheels that comes with the 06 G35 Coupes, the 6-spoke, 7-spoke, and double 6-spoke wheels.
The double 6-spoke wheels come with the Sport Package. What about the other two wheels?

17" 6 spoke = standard on all base 5AT model (all years)
18" 7 spoke = standard on 03-04 6MT, available option on 03-04 5AT as sports package, optional package on 05+ 5AT as a performance tire and wheel package.
19" 5 double spoke = standard on 05+ 6MT, or optional package on 05+ 5AT as sports package[/qoute]

This is for the Coupe:
05-06 sport package includes 19" wheels
03-04 sport package includes 18" wheels
05-06 uses the 18" as "standard" wheels. In reality, the 17's are standard, but hardly ever seen at a dealership here in SoCal.
17" wheels were more common in the 03-04, but still seen around.

To make it easier:
19" are double 6-spoked
18" are single 7-spoked
17" are single 6-spoked
If you tie the information I just gave you with me prior post, you have your answer.

I have had them ever since I bought my G, and never paid attention to how many spokes. The "double" spokes gets confusing from a distance to read.
Got catch
